N2 - A gram-positive, nonmotile, rod-shaped, nonflagellated, aerobic bacterium, designated strain DSD2T was isolated from a seawater sample from Sadong wharf, Ulleung-Island, South Korea. Strain DSD2T was found to be able to grow at pH ranging from 6 to 11 (optimum 7–8), 0–7 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0 %), at 10–42 °C (optimum 37 °C). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain DSD2T was 95.8 % similar to the type strain of Kineosporia rhamnosa KACC 15195T, 95.8 % similar to Angustibacter aerolatus KACC 15527T, and 95.5 % similar to Kineococcus xinjiangensis KCTC 19474T as its closest relatives. A neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain DSD2T related to Micrococcineae and Kineosporiineae suborder clade. The major polar lipids were phosphoglycolipids and phospholipids. Strain DSD2T was found to contain MK-8 (H2) and MK-9 (H4) as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C16:0 as the major fatty acid. The isolate contained meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-A2pm) with alanine, glutamic acid, and glycine as the diagnostic diamino acid. The DNA G+C content of strain DSD2T was 73.2 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic, biochemical, chemotaxonomic, and other physiological characteristics, strain DSD2T is assigned to a novel species of a novel genus within the suborder Kineosporiineae and the name Thalassiella azotovora gen nov., sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain is DSD2T (= KCTC 39634T = JCM 31134T).
